[SRU][J][PATCH 3/5] cgroup: Make cgroup_get_from_id() prettier

From: Tejun Heo <tj at kernel.org>

After merging 836ac87d ("cgroup: fix cgroup_get_from_id") into for-6.1, its
combination with two commits in for-6.1 - 4534dee9 ("cgroup: cgroup: Honor
caller's cgroup NS when resolving cgroup id") and fa7e439c ("cgroup:
Homogenize cgroup_get_from_id() return value") - makes the gotos in the
error handling path too ugly while not adding anything of value.

All that the gotos are saving is one extra kernfs_put() call. Let's remove
the gotos and perform error returns directly.
